5 Days in Nusa Tenggara: Flores & Komodo

Labuan Bajo, Indonesia · 5 days, 4 nights · mid-range · from about $1200 per person · best in April, May, June

Labuan Bajo is the gateway to Komodo National Park, where couples can trek among prehistoric dragons, dive pristine reefs, and wake to sunrise over volcanic peaks. This is romantic adventure for two—remote enough to feel undiscovered, warm enough year-round, and intimate without the resort crowds of Bali.
